Mine is "Okay? Okay." or "Some Infinities are bigger than other Infinities". (Yes, big Fault in our Stars fan here, eek) I want to know this for the same reason as the song thing xD

Mine is "Beautiful things don't ask for attention." from the movie The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. Sean O'Connell is a real artist cx

I know that isn't a book, but I LOVE this quote.
 
'So what? You're another person, so of course you look different. What do you need to be ashamed for?' - Yana Toboso, Black Butler (Even if Manga doesn't count...)
- Or -
“He sang “I wish I weren’t me” over and over again just flat of the key of love until he forgot the words and could only hum along. Everyday was the same. The same stupid smile on the same stupid boy. Until the days blurred into a haze and the boy dropped into a depression. Not a cool dark room and cigarette depression like the songs he loved, but one that felt like he was being smothered by a safe, suburban, monotonous blanket. Everything felt like a headache to the boy. Every face, every stupid stuttered sentence all wrapped up into the biggest headache ever. So the boy took an aspirin. And another and another and then went to sleep, lullabyed by hopes he would never wake up to.”

- Pete Wentz, The Boy With The Thorn In His Side
- Or -
"Why could I only see beauty in death, and not life?"

-Kaneki Ken, Tokyo Ghoul.

“I thought that what I felt for you was right," Luce said. "I loved you until it hurt me, until our love was consumed by your pride and rage. The thing you called love made me disappear. So I had to stop loving you." She Paused. "Our adoration never diminished the Throne, but your love diminished me. I never meant to hurt you. I only meant to stop you from hurting me.”
Lauren Kate, Rapture

"Gary!"-FO:3

"Are we gathering for whiskey and cigars tonight?"-Dishonored

"YOU GET NOTHING! YOU LOSE! GOOD DAY SIR!" -Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
